FILE — People enjoy the beach, Feb. 12, 2022, Santa Monica, Calif. California's population continued to shrink in 2021 as the nation's most populous state posted its second consecutive decline, state officials said Monday, May 2, 2022. SACRAMENTO, Calif.
California lost 117,552 people in 2021, putting its population to 39,185,605, the California Department of Finance said. That's still the largest state population in the country ahead of second-place Texas. But after years of steady population growth for California that put it close to having 40 million residents, the state's population is back to where it was in 2016.
State officials blamed the loss on a declining birth rate for California coupled with an increase in deaths, mostly because of COVID-19.
